Abstract

Since the end of the 90’s, San Sebastian/Donostia has seen the progressive establishment of research centers of all kinds linked, in many cases, to Chemistry and Physics. Several members of the Faculty of Chemistry, now celebrating its 50th anniversary and located in that city, have actively participated in this establishment. In this article we review the historical precedents of the creation of the Faculty and, subsequently, highlight the most relevant characteristics of the aforementioned Centers.
